The recent meeting on THR in Australia was an absolute joke, the main stream media refused to cover it, so please share this video to give these "scientists" the attention they deserve.
Okay - I found it very interesting that with all the recent hoopla, hysterics and diatribe & condemnation of E-Cigarettes and "Vaping" (inclusive) on all major Media oulets - that one of the local 3 PBS Stations here in South Florida - WLRN (out of Miami) has actually been showing a very good older educational/documentary program from BBC that I saw a couple of years ago :
"E-Cigarettes: Miracle Or Menace" (2016):
Can't embed video here - So here is the link to video: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5875ke
(BTW: It is also shown on Netflix: Netflix)
AND - Then online there was a repeat of CBS Sunday Mornings Report last year:
"Clearing the air on e-cigarettes" (Oct 2018)
Besides Canada's Networks: CBC News - 5th Estate:
"Investigating e-cigarettes: a less harmful way to smoke?" (2016)
Also, there is an excellent documentary (mixed languages - sub-titles) :
"Beyond The Cloud - Documentary film about vaping" (2016)
AND - IMHO - While these maybe older videos, i do believe they are still relevant. SO - I hope this info will be enlightening and open the conversation to the general public and "You", your Family & Friends that keep asking you if is Ok / or that "You" NEED to Stop, and can be especially helpful about what "Vaping" is and is not when and if Ya' are ever confronted by others. That is if they are willing to watch and learn . . . Just Sayin' . . .

Thought I might share a funny story.
If I have to leave my office building, I will grab a little bottle of liquid and place it in my pocket just for safe measure. This set of events happened today. My meeting took a break and I went into the men's room and decided this would be good place to do a quick fill of my subtank mini. Just as I finished filling it, my phone rings. I finish my call and everyone is returning to the meeting so I grab my stuff off the counter, just put it in my pockets and go back in to the conference room. At the end of the meeting I stood to leave when a woman noticed a stain on my gray suit pants. Note: when gray gets wet it becomes dark gray. Now I don't always remember that others don't vape so I simply said "Oh, I guess my juice leaked" and left. I got a call about an hour after I returned to my office when the gentleman that invited me to the meeting asked "Did you tell some woman that your juiced your pants!?" I said "yes, it was a little embarrassing but nothing to worry about". Turns out this woman rushed out of the room and grabbed a phone to call 20 people and tell them. I took calls for 2 hours with people asking me if I was "ok" and wondering what kind of juice I am leaking. The moral of the story is, make sure you put the cap on your bottle tight.

Yahoo story about a recent "study." Of course Mr. Glantz is the one who says "vapor penetrates paint" and is copiously quoted in the article.

Hi, I purchased a Kanger Geni tank awhile back and in the box was an "Ego Cone Cover" as pictured to the farright
I don't understand where to put the cover or what its purpose is. I read somewhere that it is for covering up threads but I still do not understand. I have an iPow2 battery.
Thank you
This made me laugh, figured I'd share.
Yesterday, my 4 year old daughter and I walk out the door to go to (her) school. The whole yard was filled with a low hanging fog. She says, "Wow, Daddy, you vaped so much yesterday you made the whole world foggy!"
Obviously she knows it wasn't me and was just goofing around, but I still thought it was pretty quick witted for a pre schooler
I have an iPV Mini that the finish is starting to look a little bad in certain areas on the mod.
I am going to cover it with a vinyl wrap, but can't decide what to buy.
Pricewise, the J-Wrap and Vapor Skinz are at least double the price or more than the wraps you can buy off of Ebay from companies such as "MightySkinsDecals1"
Are these Ebay wraps in the $7.00 - $8.00 price range of much poorer quality than the expensive J-Wraps, Vapor Skinz, etc?
Thanks,
Scientists want probe of UCSF tobacco research
One of the country's best-known tobacco researchers is under fire this week after one of his federally funded vaping studies was retracted and other academics are calling for federal review of some of his other influential anti-vaping research.

additional Glantz studies deserving of the most scrutiny include two major publications in 2018: A meta analysis of other vaping studies published in the British journal Lancet Respiratory Medicine and one in the journal Pediatrics about teen vaping and smoking.
The Lancet analysis of several studies was based on a "misleading negative correlation between e-cigarettes and smoking cessation"and used studies that had nothing to do with quitting smoking, Abrams said. This violated the basic tenets of medical research review, he added.
"It has had a massive misleading influence in the field to this day because it is cited as the main reference" to show vaping makes it harder to quit smoking, Abrams said.
The other study concluded the "use of e-cigarettes does not discourage, and may encourage, conventional cigarette use among US adolescents." Rodu, who analyzed the claim, found only 11 of 9,000 teens studied vaped before they started smoking and 80% of the kids who smoked hadn't used tobacco product previously.
Using that data, Abrams said the "effect of vaping is not just diminished, it disappears."

In response to the California Department of Public Health's new $7 million anti-ecigarette propaganda campaign "#stillblowingsmoke", which launches today, a new website notblowingsmoke.org has been published.
Please visit the site and share widely on social media and with friends and family, and let's see this go even more viral than the #curbit fightback!
I agree thats its not fair we are being attacked from pretty much all sides.
But fact of the matter is we are.
So what are you doing about it?
Do you answer calls to action from Casaa, and or are you a member?
Do you wright rebuttals to editors of news channels and papers who spread antivape propaganda?
Do you donate money to Casaa?
Every little bit helps if 5$ a month is all you can afford thats awesome! Well its not awesome you only have 5$ free dollars a month but awesome you will donate 5$ when you are on a tight budget.
I deserve to be a vapor and I pledege to my fellow vapors to continue to answer calls of actions from Casaa, wright letters to those who print or pass on antivaping propaganda, and continue to donate funds to Casaa so they can continue to fight for us.
What are you going to do, to deserve to be a Vapor?
I hope all who read this will get involved and do something about the situation we are facing. No matter what you do grate or small at least do SOMETHING!
Also big big ATTA BOYS all around for all of those already involved and taking action.
Hello everyone.
Hope you and your loved ones are staying safe.
What small things we do while vaping that deserve no explanation?
Myself I have the quirk (hope this is the right word) of only liking to set my wattage in some specific numbers and/or sequences:
2-7-12-17-22-27-32-etc or numbers ending with 9.
What else... I have a thing for black mods and black atomisers.
Anyone else have some things that fit the topic that want to share?
Stay safe. Have fun.
